  : I am spending my afternoon replacing elastic in some cloth diapers I scored free on craigslist the other day. Thinking of your carride activities :
  
  How was your report? Looks like I have a good 17mm follicle that grew fast this week, going in tomorrow and Tuesday and we are expecting an insemination Tuesday or Wednesday. Fingers crossed!

  Awesomeness! My report was good : two happy follies on the right 17mm and 20mm with a 9mm lining! RE is happy with my response to Femara and she gave me a big hug. And a trigger shot.
  
  IUI 5 tomorrow, fingers crossed! We'll get to test on new year's eve.
  
  All the best for your IUI!!! But I thought I read you were putting your eggs in your love partner's ute? If not we are going to be IUI buddies and hopefully BFP buddies too!

  Hi there Mollykelley. Congratulations on your follicles!
  I suppose following Manada's and my situation can be a bit confusing. Our doc has trouble keeping track, too.
  Our original plan and continuing goal is that Manada and I will each be able to get pregnant with our own eggs via IUI.
  Originally I was going to start insemination in April and Manada was going to follow in two years or so. But we found out that Manada has diminished ovarian reserve and so the doc recommended that we not wait until April and that we start with Amanda. As we have started her cycle monitoring, we have also been following up with my fertility stuff like the hsg so we could know our options.
  
  I have a good ovarian reserve but I have uterine polyps and a blocked Fallopian tube although possibly from the polyps so it is possible that I will have trouble conceiving because of that. So our doctor has noted that it might make sense to consider partner egg donation and IVF. And I think that is a wonderfully romantic idea and am trying to convince Manada of it. She is concerned about the financial cost IUI is coverednot the sperm and IVF is not.
  Either way though we are going to give it a go with IUI up to four times with Manada and her beautiful prematurely old eggs that seem to be working out well this month.
  So yes, you will be IUI buddies. Best of luck to you!

  ****loss discussed*****
  
  We're queer. I'm 33, have severe stage 4 endo, and had both fallopian tubes removed. My love ("Manada" on the boards, 32) was diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. We did Partner IVF (my eggs, her uterus). We lost our twins Tavin and Casey at 21 weeks gestation.
  
  Our IUIs
  with @Manada: IUI# 1-7 (December 2012- September 2013) all BFN. Tried natural, femara, clomid, puregon/follistim, clomid and menopur combo, both the ovidrel and HCG triggers.
  
  Our IVFs:
  IVF #1 my eggs November/December 2013: Cancelled IVF due to poor response
  
  IVF #2 my eggs/Manada's uterus January/February 2014
  BCPs and lupron overlap Stimmed: 1/22-2/2: Bravelle and Menopur (dosage ranged from B300 and M150 to B375 and M150 to B300 and M225)
  2/4 retrieved 10 eggs. Endo was much worse than expected. Only 3 eggs fertilized; February 7 transferred two day 3 embryos, froze one. All great condition.
  BFP eve of 6dp3dt; Beta 1 (11dp3dt): 110; Beta 2 (13dp3dt): 175; Beta 3 (15dp3dt): 348; Beta 4 (19dp3dt): 2222; Beta 5 (21dp3dt): 4255
  1st ultrasound (3/6  6w 1d): TWINS!!!! Twin A measuring 6w1d with a heartbeat of 118bpm. Twin B measuring 6w0d with a heartbeat of 113bpm. 

  
  ***July 18, 2014 we lost our beautiful babies at 21 weeks gestation. They were born too early. Tavin Sara T. and Casey Elizabeth T. are beautiful and precious and we will love them and miss them forever.***
  
  FET #1 December 2014

  Intralipid infusion on Dec 10. Transfer of 1 day 3 nine-cell embryo into my uterus on Dec. 19. (acupuncture immediately before and after)

  BFP on Dec. 27; Beta 1 Jan 2 (14dp3dt): 665, Beta 2 Jan 4 (16dp3dt): 1859, Beta 3 Jan 6 (18dp3dt): 4449, Beta 4 Jan 10 (22dp3dt): 12,251.
